The Release Held Invoices module provides the facility to release invoices for payment which were previously on hold. This program produces a report of all held invoices for which the quantity received is greater than or equal to the quantity invoiced on the related purchase order. It then removes the receiving hold from these invoices.
There is a report only option that creates the report and does not reset any invoice.
The program reads all held invoices. The PO for the invoice is read and each detail line of the PO is checked to make sure that the quantity received is greater than or equal to the quantity invoiced. If the quantity received is less than the quantity invoiced on any detail line, the invoice is not released. When an invoice is released, the invoice type is changed from '@' to 'I'. This removes the receiving hold on the invoice and makes it available for accounts payable.
The report lists the invoice number, date and amount, the vendor number and name and the PO number.
